Cautionary Tales of Swords is an American drama television series that premiered on Channel 101 on June 24, 2007. It ended on January 27, 2008. It was created by Drew Hancock.

Director/Actor Drew Hancock wrote a mini-show for Acceptable.TV about the dangers of swords, but VH-1 hated it so it was never produced. Now, in the post-ATV era, Hancock has brought the show to the Channel 101 audience to great success.
